[ Roleplay Guideline ]

Before the writing process these are several question you should ask yourself before beginning the writting of your roleplay.

Where does the action take place :
What is the main Story of this Roleplay :
What mood is your characters in :
Who is in your Roleplay :

[ Description ]
After you successfully answered every question. You are ready to start the writting process.
Take the place where you character is and : describe this place in full details , if its in a abandoned building , describe the building , what happened to the building , why is it abandoned now , What colours are the wall , can you feel the wind in the building?
Anything , Any details you can give about the place your roleplay take place in go ahead. This will give the readers a good all around Vision of the surrounding environment. Give us a description of what your character wear also , then we have the total package and can image your roleplay in our head as we are reading it.

[ Color Code ]
Establish a good Color Code in your Roleplay. For Example when you describe an action use the blue. When your character think use the Grey , when he talks use the white. And keep the same code everytime this will greatly help with the reading of your roleplay making it easier to read to the people and the one who actually judges your roleplay.

[ Content ]
1. Gimmick.
if Your character fit the gimmick a little humor in a roleplay is always fin. It makes a roleplay fun to read and makes for a good lecture (Ex:Toast Roleplay). But off course if your character does not fit the funny guy thing. Do not use it , try not to break the habit of your character , if your guy is a #heel do not have him come in and talk all funny and everything. Or if your guy is a super Powerhouse or a ''Dark'' type character like the undertaker or Kane , do not make him do jokes.

2.Inside.
Do not make a promo where the only thing there is for example (Steve : Blah Blah Blah)
It gets really boring to read a character talk for a full roleplay without having any action at all in it. This makes for the most boring promo Ever. Don't roleplay about Killing , or rape. Some fed owner might actually allow it , but there is absolutely no chance that you will win with that. Not that your roleplay will suck , but no one wants to read about these sort of thing.

3. Past Present and Future
Okay so this is it , you are facing Eddie Bravo today. Last week you were up against Mike Chipmunks. Talk about it , talk about what happened last week , did you get screwed who did win , how did this person win. What s the past of Eddie bravo , who is he , what did he do last week , did he lost against someone , or did he win. What are you gonna do to them to them when you are gonna meet in the ring.

[ Get Involved ]
Talk with wrestler in the fed. Talk with people , get involved in the fed. Feud with someone , or team up with someone. Give your character an actual story with the other wrestler of the fed. Do not stay on your side on roleplay about your little thing , Get involved.

[ Roleplaying Styles ]
1.The Rant
As it sounds, a rant. This is the age old, fool proof method. Kinda dated, but useful in situations when applied correctly.

Starts out with some description, and goes into the character(s) just ranting and raving. Usually ends abruptly with no outro if you will.

Good for: shoot promo's, loudmouth heels, in-ring promo's.

2. The Story
Like reading a chapter from a book. More of a narrative style. Great for the RP/er that wants to delve into his background or lay out a well constructed framework for some future event.

We've all read books so i'll skip the example.

Good for:Heel/Face alike, character's with deep backgrounds, long feuds and angles that will read like....books.

3.The Jack Bauer
If you got the reference there, kudos. These RP's tend to have as much description and actual action as they do discussion and narrative.

The actual dialogue is broken up constantly by short descriptions of what the the characters are doing, i.e smoking, drinking, eating, wrestling etc.

Good for:Heel/Face alike, Perfect for when you want to express something you're doing, like an activity, say you're training hard in the gym and you want to illustrate that.

Now you pick the style that fit you the most , you can move from time to time and experience different time. But when the time needs it , jump back into your comfort zone and do your best.

[ Quality not Quantity ]
Now How many times was this said , really how many time did you see this little quote on a past efed. If you never saw this , believe me : you were not in a good fed then. This apply pretty much to efed with a weekly roleplay quantity of 2 or more.
This Quote represent the whole roleplaying game. Its Quality , write a quality roleplay before going out and writting 3-4 roleplay that have no meaning at all.

[ Reading Game ]
The Reading game , to be successful in a roleplay fed. You have to read what the other wrestler are writting. It can gives you material for your own promo. If the guy write in his roleplay that you are a nobody and everything and you see it. In your roleplay you can answer to him saying something like : '' I'm a nobody i won 37 championship what have you done ..'' and blah blah blah. You get the big picture there. Reading is as much a big part of your success as writing is.

[ Eye Pleasure ]
Now this will not make you win any match. But it helps i think for the viewing experience of a roleplay. Little GFX work on your roleplay gives something for the eye. Now as i said you will never win any match cuz you had great GFX in your roleplay. But its better on the eye. This is no where near necessary to have for it to be a good roleplay.

[ Spell Check ]
Run your roleplay thru a spell chek if you know you do a lot of mistake when you write. Or if your french , like me. This makes a roleplay easier yo read as you dont have to stop at every words to try to guess what is written.
